How many listeners - recommendations

jamb · 8th June 2002, 18:26

Hey,

I'm currently on ISDN (upgrading soon cos I live in Britain in an area where broadband is as rare as a 14 headed monkey on speed), and I currently have a limit of 6 listeners on a 24kbps stream.

Could I have anymore listeners?

How many listeners / kpbs rate would be ideal on Cable or DSL then?

It is all dependant on your upload speed. Take a speed test: http://www.dslreports.com/stest and take your upload speed and determine the number of listeners you can support at various bitrates using: http://www.casterclub.com/bw_calc.ph...le%20Bandwidth
For cable or DSL you would need to know the upload speed to estimate the number of users you can support.
